Where Did Everyone Go

But nothing lasts forever

And the deepest well runs dry

Just cause i stopped rolling sevens

Doesn't mean i have to cry

Where Did Everyone Go

(Van Heusen/David)

Always Behind Us

Somebody lets us loose like a toad out of a matchbox and we jump and jump and jump and the guy always behind us, and when he gets tired he stomps us to death and our guts squirt out on each side of the boot of All Merciful Providence. The son-of-a-bitch !
